Goodyears of Hartlebury, Worcs and West Bromwich, England, UK
Hi Goodyears. My ggrandmother Susanna Goodyear was b Hartlebury, Worcs c 1858. She m my ggrandfather Alfred John Brown 1886 at Hartlebury. They lived West Bromwich. Their son Alfred Frank Brown was b 1889 and moved to Wigan 1910s. Susanna died c 1900. AJB then married Louisa Charlotte Price also of Hartlebury and their son Arthur Samuel Brown was b 1906. Susanna's parents were William (builder b c 1824) and Sarah Goodyear. Susanna and sister Sarah Jane were dressmakers. Sarah Jane poss moved Liverpool, Lancs. William's siblings poss Joseph b c 1832 and Andrew b c 1836, sons of John Goodyear b c 1800 and wife poss Elizabeth Goodyear, b c 1803. Thanks to this website I was recently contacted by second family of AJB who had waited 80 years to know whether Alfred Frank Brown had survived WW1! We hope to meet soon. I now believe AJB and Louisa buried Perry Barr, Birmingham. I am looking for death date and burial place of Susanna, also info re: other Goodyears above. Both families believed Susanna related to Goodyears of rubber company. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks! Carol
